With detailed essays on the Arctic's environment, wildlife, climate, history, exploration, resources, economics, politics, indigenous cultures and languages, conservation initiatives and more, this Encyclopedia is the only major work and comprehensive reference on this vast, complex, changing, and increasingly important part of the globe. Including 305 maps. This Encyclopedia is not only an interdisciplinary work of reference for all those involved in teaching or researching Arctic issues, but a fascinating and comprehensive resource for residents of the Arctic, and all those concerned with global environmental issues, sustainability, science, and human interactions with the environment.
Fourteen chapters discuss regional stratigraphy by time intervals from Precambrian to Quaternary, while other chapters describe the geography, geomorphology, tectonics, geophysical characteristics, and resources of the region. A summary chapter includes geologic maps, structural cross-sections, a geotectonic correlation chart, a gravity map, and a location map for exploration wells in the Arctic Islands and northern Greenland. A wealth of additional information is contained on the nine accompanying plates.
After outlining what is currently known - or can fairly safely be deduced - about weather, climate, geology, and the glaciers and the hydrography of the area, the three major landform regions of Nyeboe Land and their characteristic terrain features are discussed, as well as the terrain of each of the 26 areal sections into which Nyeboe Land has been subdivided. For each of these sections, the possibilities of access and traverse are discussed with the assumption that low-ground pressure tracked motor vehicles would be used as the means of transportation. The sectional terrain analysis is followed by a discussion of the means and routes of access to Nyeboe Land as a whole, of the routes through each area, and of potential major c mp sites. (Author).
